[edit]MacScutta Leverets (Closed)
[edit]Scotty Bluefleck, the character I use as my avatar, is the main character in my fanfic Tales from Bowlaynee Castle. At the end of the story, she weds fellow TFBC character Prince Iram MacScutta. They later have eight children (this bit is not actually in the story), and that's where you come in. I'd like some help designing the Leverets.
Sumbission Requirements
[edit]Entries should consist of the following:
- A picture of preferably 2 (two) or more young hares, between Dibbun and pre-teen age. No arm-baby infants, teens or adults, please!
- The picture must have, either actually on it or somewhere in its filename/description, the names of the characters you drew. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY IMPERATIVE - if you fail to do this, I will message you asking you to correct it. If it is not corrected, the picture won't be accepted.
- Each leveret has one tiny distinguishing characteristic - otherwise, you have a free hand as to appearance. The names/Dibbun Nicknames (where applicable), genders, and special characteristics of the children are, in order from eldest to youngest -
- Grumbu (Male) - Penetrating Black Eyes
- Cyme (Male) - Small pair of spectacles
- Difoliah "Foley" (Female) - White Blotch on forehead
- Lapidius "Piddy" (Male) - Short for age
- Juvo (Male) - Tall for Age
- Mhaidin "Dee-Dee" (Female) - Unusually Poofy Tailbob
- Carraig "Rocky" (Male) - Scruffy/Scraggly Fur
- Cluana (Female) - Really Big Eyes
- For the most part, you get to design what the character looks like - however, you should probably keep in mind what the parents/Grandparents looked like. This is the basic list of fur patterns and eye colors, from which practically endless combos can be drawn.
- MOTHER - Fur the color of greyish sand, with slate and charcoal blotches. White underbelly and throat. Eyes are brown.
- FATHER - Jet Black fur all over. Red (pigmentless albino) eyes.
- MATERNAL GRANDFATHER - Fur whitish grey; white underbelly and throat. One big blue-black splot over one eye, and many faint slate speckles in the rest of the coat. Eyes steel blue.
- MATERNAL GRANDMOTHER - Fur reddish-tan, cream on throat and underbelly. Fur fades to dark brown on eartips and pawtips. Eyes are deep hazel, almost brown.
- PATERNAL GRANDFATHER - Almost pure albino. White fur, ruby red eyes. Only discrepancy slight black tips to the ears.
- PATERNAL GRANDMOTHER - Deep Sable fur with chocolate undertones, cream on the throat and underbelly. Also has cream-colored pawtips. Eyes are deep brown, almost black.
When you upload your pictures, DO NOT, under ANY circumstances, CLICK UPLOAD UNTIL YOU HAVE FOUND THE LISCENCING AREA AND MARKED IT "THIS IS MY FAN ART!" If you fail to do this, your picture will eventually be deleted by LordTBT for violation of image upload guidlines!
Rules
[edit]I want to allow as much creative liberty as possible. However, there are a few Do-nots.
- NO MODERN CLOTHES! They must fit the Redwall Era, specifically the time about a generation after the book The Rogue Crew..
- NO MODERN WEAPONS! Same as above.
- NO EXCESSIVE HAIR! Bangs and top-knots are okay, but no long hair or ponytails.
- NO BORROWING! Don't use any character that's not yours (either canon or another user's).
Prizes
[edit]Everybody will recieve certificates for free B&W sketch requests, one per each picture they enter. They will also have their pictures displayed in the results gallery here, and in my "Art By Other Users" page. I am also running this contest on dA, so some entries will also come from there.
Grand Prize winner recieves:
- One GIMP color picture from me.
- Four Sketches to their request (in addition to the entry prizes)
Runner-Ups (There will be three) each receive:
- Two sketches to their request (in addition to the entry prizes).
Other Important Information
[edit]- The Grand Prize Winner will be chosen by myself and my sister in collaboration. The decision will rest on several factors: Skill, attractiveness of character artistically, and attractiveness of character aesthetically. There is also some personal preference woven in here so be warned; our ideas on art and aesthetics may not match yours.
- There is no limit as to entries; contestants can enter multiple times. In fact, I'd encourage this.
- ANY MEDIUM IS ACCEPTIBLE! I like B&W pictures just as well as color, and traditional just as well as CG.
- The Deadline is June 1st, 2013. If you absolutely MUST have an extension, I don't mind, but I need to know in advance so I can tell the others who would otherwise be biting their nails waiting. :-)
- A Reiteration: when you upload your pictures, MAKE SURE TO LOOK AROUND FOR THE LISCENCING AREA AND MARK IT "THIS IS MY FAN ART!" If you don't, LordTBT will delete your picture and I won't be able to put it in the Contestants gallery.
- As always, have fun! I hate it when people get into arguments or disharmony over these things; it is, after all, just for the fun of it.
